Hello my name is Melody Tashjian, and I believe in equal opportunity. I believe that every child should get the opportunity to grow, succeed, and become who he/she wants to be. This dream is only possible if we start from the bottom. There are children in India who do not get the education or food they need. These are the basics that children in America automatically get to have. It is so easy to forget how fortunate we are. There are children dying in India every day from causes that we could prevent. Many children even die before they can even see the world. Other children die from starvation. I want every child to start with the same basics and rights that we are given as children. But, these children need help, and nothing is going to come to them easily. They need us, and they need you. Please join us for the CRY NJ 2013 Walk where we can help support this cause. This cause needs to be seen and heard.

I support this event

Our Annual CRY Walk for Child Rights event is being organized across 15 cities in 2013 - bringing hundreds of individuals together with the belief that 'Change is possible, because we will make it possible'. Let's all come together and work towards the day when all children will have their rights to live, learn, grow and play!
